Snow White and the Huntsman Sequel on the Fast Track at Universal Pictures

After over-performing at the box office last weekend with an impressive $56.2 million, Universal Pictures is fast-tracking a sequel to Snow White and the Huntsman.

We reported back in April that the studio hired screenwriter David Koepp to draft the sequel, nearly a full month before the movie even opened in theaters. Now Universal is in early talks with director Rupert Sanders to return for this follow-up. The filmmaker is interested in helming the sequel, and he doesn't have another project lined up, but the deal still isn't finalized yet.
